It's not all bad news
Hi there, Just joined. I just wanted to say some of the things that have really helped my pcos and my general health. I'm luck enough to have to young boys, both conceived after taking metformin. I've taken up running! Something I never ever thought I would be able to do, I was always last at any school

Adding PARP inhibitor (Olaparib) to the Standard Therapy (Zytiga/ADT/Prenosone)
I had an interesting and unexpected conversation with my "second opinion" MO. I went to see him regarding adding Metformin to my list of medications (He's a well known expert - more on Metformin later), but the focus of the conversation turned into adding Olaparib to my existing treatment regime of Zytiga

Is this more serious than what i think it is?
Ever since I was born I had constipation problems. I still get constipated a lot. I try taking laxatives to help but it makes my anal saw. I went to bed last night with extremely painful cramps like period cramps but I just finished my period. I’ve tried changing diet aswell but that doesn’t help.

Dapagliflozin or not?
I have T2 diabetes; hypertension; polymyalgia (PMR) and have lymphoedema in my legs. My blood readings are raised artificially by having to take steroids for the PMR (4.75 years and counting). Recent Hba1 is 8.7% and I use metformin, Levermir and Novarapid as controls. My GP has recently tried to prescribe

Are You Happy with Your Type 2 Diabetes Medication?
Are You Happy with Your Type 2 Diabetes Medication? If you have type 2 diabetes, the most common type of diabetes, it’s important to manage the condition. Uncontrolled blood sugar increases your risk of developing serious and even life-threatening health problems such as heart disease, nerve problems

I’m abit concerned because I know that metformin can be used to help people with periods. Also my urine sudden started going orange when started taking metformin but drinking plenty

Dr freaking out due to High T3 & blood sugar!
Hi, just got back from gp and she says although I have no ketones in my blood I have very high blood sugar!? Finger prick test today was 16. She says she wants me on metformin and that I have to go to hospital! She wants me to stop taking T3 as well as I am on a high dose as I'm thyroid hormone resistant
